Aptus Value Housing Finance India Limited has named Mukul Mathur as an Additional Director and Independent Director for a five-year term, effective March 18, 2026. The appointment, which requires shareholder approval, signals the board’s intent to bolster governance and technology oversight as the company navigates growth.
Mathur is a veteran business leader with more than 30 years of global experience, including 29 years in senior roles at IBM across Asia-Pacific, Europe, Latin America and the Middle East. He currently serves as an Independent Director on the boards of SK Finance Ltd. and Fibe.India (Earlysalary Services Pvt. Ltd.). He holds an MBA in Finance & Marketing from XLRI and a BE in Electronics & Communication, complemented by executive certificates from Harvard, Cornell, Duke and MIT xPro in cybersecurity, and is CISA-certified.
Beyond corporate boards, Mathur founded ZeroT Plus Technologies LLP, advising boards and C‑suite executives on digital transformation, IT governance and cyber risk management, and mentoring technology start-ups on go‑to‑market strategies and ecosystem development. His deep expertise in digital strategy and risk governance is expected to contribute to Aptus’s board discussions on technology, information security and strategic risk.
Notably, the appointment comes with a clean governance record—Mathur is not related to Aptus directors and is not debarred from holding directorships by SEBI or any other authority. The five-year term runs from 18 March 2026 to 17 March 2031, with no retirement by rotation during that period.
